D – Description
In an autocracy, the ruler, or czar, has complete rule over all aspects of life, economy, property, public affairs, and private affairs. The autocratic rulers were very restrictive on their people, for if the people were informed of how other people were living, they would try to overthrow the government, and in a autocracy, the most precious thing for a czar is to keep their power and hold over their people.
Karl Marx was a philosopher, and he used the Russian Revolution to his advantage to spread his ideas. He supported communism, and encouraged it. Those who supported Marx said that his beliefs gave the working class hope of a better life. They said that the workers would be inspired by an intellectual who was on their side and who was fighting their cause. In 1898, the Russian Social Democratic Party was formed to expand Marx’s beliefs in Russia.
